Furious.
I am not perfect. I make mistakes. I don’t always do the right thing.
I am, however, completely furious with someone I had taken to be my friend. I do not understand how I have failed in our friendship, but his consistent refusal to speak to me or do anything with me has always been curt and I am tired of being the one to always extend the invitation. I know now that the message is clear, and I have taken precautions to make sure I do not make the same mistake again with him (although I know I will be tempted to), but I am still frustrated, and I know there is nothing I can do to correct the situation. It seems it is just time to walk away, despite the fact that I don’t know why it has to be this way, and I don’t want it to be.
I hate feeling helpless. It’s infuriating.
